As someone who dated an Irish guy for more years than I wish to tell you, I think I\u2019m perfectly qualified to share some of the top reasons WHY you should date an Irish guy\u2026<\/p>\n<p><strong>They love their family.<\/strong> Irish men are big family men, they especially love their mothers and who wouldn&#8217;t want a man that\u2019s devoted to their family?<\/p>\n<p><strong>They have great sense of humour.<\/strong> The ability to make you laugh should be one of your top priorities when finding a partner. After all, if you can\u2019t have a good laugh then what a miserable life that would be. Irish men have great sense of a humour, often lively and are fun to be around.<\/p>\n<p><strong>They say it like it is.<\/strong> No messing around with Irish men, they say it like it is so you know exactly where you stand.<\/p>\n<p><strong>St Patrick\u2019s Day will be like Christmas.<\/strong> If you\u2019ve never celebrated St Patrick\u2019s day with an Irish man then you\u2019ve not really celebrated it at all. You\u2019ll not only learn about why this saint is celebrated every year (over a Guinness or six) but you\u2019ll also be able to get your green on and party like it\u2019s 1999!<\/p>\n<p><strong>You\u2019ll enjoy a good story.<\/strong> The Irish have a wonderful ability to tell stories. So sit back, relax and enjoy epically good tales.<\/p>\n<p><strong>They\u2019re generous.<\/strong> OK so you may not get the full fave star treatment when you date an average Irish man but you will get a bag of chips and his jacket on the way home, seriously, what more could you ask for?<\/p>\n<p><strong>They dad dance.<\/strong> Sorry you\u2019ll not have any strictly come dancing hopefuls on your hands but you will have a great laugh at the full on dad dancing moves that your man possesses.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Good food and drink.<\/strong> Listen, your guy hails from the country that invented the mashed potato &#8211; imagine what life would be like without any mash!! And don\u2019t forget whiskey and Guinness.<\/p>\n<p><strong>There won\u2019t be any awkward silences.<\/strong> The gift of the gab came about for a reason. So don\u2019t worry about having any awkward silences when you\u2019re out for the night.<\/p>\n<p><strong>They\u2019re pretty easy going.<\/strong> Putting aside when their country lose at the rugby, Irish men are pretty easy going.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And last but not least they know how to brew a proper cuppa.<\/strong> You\u2019ll have a first class introduction to Barry\u2019s Tea and you\u2019ll never have to worry about having another bad cup again.<\/p>\n<p><em>So have your dated an Irish guy?
